“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”
— Matthew 5:14-16

Every November…

We pause to remember who we are and why we’re here.
Be The Blessing isn’t just a moment—it’s our mission in motion. It’s how we live as bridge builders in our city, our nation, and our world.

Together, we celebrate what God has done, dream about what’s next, and join hands to be the light—so others may see the goodness of God through us.

Are you ready to Be The Blessing?

  • People collecting canned goods and household items for donation at a food drive or charity event.

    Stuff The Truck

    This year, we’re doubling the blessing by collecting food for local families in partnership with Riesbecks and House of the Carpenter.

    December 6–7: Join teams at Riesbecks to collect food donations, or bring your filled bag back to church on December 7.

    Every item collected helps provide hope and nourishment to families in need.

    We'll be collecting donations this Sunday.
